A mid-size, India-based home décor and furnishings D2C brand selling hand-finished lamps, wall art, and soft furnishings across its own website, Amazon, Flipkart, and Myntra cut its warehouse operating costs by roughly 30% after moving from a manual, spreadsheet-driven process to Base.com. This case study breaks down exactly where those costs were hiding, what changed on the warehouse floor, and...

Most founders treat courier selection as a cost line. The brands that scale profitably treat it as a margin protection decision. Each return to origin (RTO) costs 1.5 to 2 times the original shipping fee. In addition, failed deliveries can lead to negative reviews. Meanwhile, slow COD payments tie up money that could fund your next inventory purchase. Delayed delivery drives 41% of customer churn...
